Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice. And moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue. — Senator Barry GoldwaterIn these precarious times we need a President that is willing to stand forward and if necessary eviscerate his opponent. Socialists give no quarter and we must be willing to advance against them on every opportunity.
Playing nice brought us where we are now. Nowadays there is no way to make an effective point without being a dick about it.
Those guys play hard ball in Washington. Did you ever listen to the Nixon tapes? Profanity you could never imagine in the Oval Office. Truman and LBJ too, even the Kennedy clan. Vice President Dick Cheney's told Senator Leahy to "F" himself on the Senate floor. Please hitch up your jeans and wake up to the world today. Comity and political correctness only brings our opponents to fits of laughter. I am sorry that is true because my Dad did not raise me that way but it is that way. Vote Trump in 2016 to save America and make it great again.
What the self-proclaimed political intelligensia here forget is politics is as much about culture as it is about policy.
The Founders weren't walking around the colonies smoking pipes with patches on elbows of their smoking jackets. It was down in the mud, scandalry. The Glenn Beck teddy bears for wetbacks bullshit is the root of much of this anti-Trump fervor.
Yes, get your political talking points from a dry drunk, who surrounds himself with sycophants and giggling toadies. Trump may not be a "100% Conservative Union" or whoever they are but at lease he's tossed some Viagra into the water cooler.
Are you actually so ---- you think any of the other candidates, Cruz included, would have the audacity to question what was going on with the debates?
I've been around this site long enough to see some of the early candidates some of the people who populate this place have supported. That Duncan Hunter should be catching on right soon. Just as soon as "we educate the electorate". Truth be told, this is the first time people have latched onto someone who could possibly be a winner this early in the game?
But it's not just about popularity, it's GETTING THE JOB DONE! If Trump does one thing, ONE THING he has talked about, it would be one thing more than any other candidate would do.
I wish I could remember where I read it but it really hit home. Obama isn't a failure. He's successfully done all he wanted to and then some. You want another 4 to 8 years of this Leftist bullshit? I, for one, certainly don't.
That's why I have to question some of the motives who want to tear down Trump. The man fights, he's probably one of the few who wouldn't have his balls handed to him in the first minute in a debate with "she who must not be named".
Not true at all. And last night Ted Cruz is an example of the point I am making.
He made his point. He called out the media. He called out the BS antics of the biased questioning. He did so, without being a dick. He came across as a statesmen, who commanded the stage. He didn’t hold back and he didn’t play nice.
It can be done. THAT is what I want in a leader. If you want the rough em up, no class, no tact guy, go for it. But I personally, like the solid, classy statesmen, who knows when and what to say and how to say it without insulting who you are saying it to so completely, your point gets missed. Just MY $.02.
